Virtual Identity for Android

Open leggewie opened this issue 7 years ago • 5 comments

Sorry if this is more of a support request or plain question than a bug, but I am looking for the functionality of Virtual Identity with Android. Any tips? I have various roles I fill and use different FROM for this purpose.

Virtual Identity is a Thunderbird extension, and thus relies on the Mozilla Thunderbird software. Alas, Thunderbird does not run on Android: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1207764

You might want to ask on an Android forum which Android software allows one to send mail with a custom From header.

@leggewie : Did you find an Android application to send email with custom sender please? K9-Mail doesn't seems to support this.. Thanks !

FairEmail can do this.
